  1. Are people not digging the J1B-S? Tons for sale everywhere. I'm kinda obsessed with it.

    I like the design, but don't love the fabric. It looks like it puckers at the seams, and doesn't have the lightness of the usual gortex varieties.

  2. I use two bags regularly right now -- Veilance Nomin backpack and a Cocotte Equipment Frida messenger bag (really small, likely intended for women but works great for light carry days). The Nomin is my daily use bag, the Frida is used for very light days, usually when travelling and all I need is my camera and a notebook.

     

    I'd love to add a mid-size messenger, really love the Bagjack NXL Black (small)... but not totally sure when I would choose that over the two options I have now.

     

     

     

  3. I have both J32 & J47 in Large.  Both coats are very similar in pit-to-pit and sleeve dimensions, etc, but I find they're cut, and fit, a bit different.  Let me know if you need any measurements laid flat to compare to your J25.

     

    Thanks, some real measurements would be awesome. Feel free to DM me if this isn't relevant to the larger community.

     

    For reference, I wear a size L Veilance Patrol IS coat, the shell is 58cm pit-to-pit laid flat. The cut is straight, maybe even getting a bit wider at the bottom.

  4. The J25-WS fits much slimmer (ime) than the J32-GT in the same size - I tried both on at Ink recently. Sizing would depend on your layering needs, but if you don't need to layer too much, I'd say you can go a size down (from your J25-WS size) on the J32-GT or the J47-GT. 

     

     

    Hey man, I bought a Large J47-GT from Grained, was my first piece.i also own the J25-WS. The J47 Fits perfectly well with an average thickness hoodie underneath for me,and like you the J25-WS fits great too!

     

     

    I am NOT the resident ACR sizing expert but I have can say without a doubt that the J25 is the slimmest-fitting ACR anything I've encountered. If it fits perfect I'd say your size is definitely L

     

    Thanks for the advice. It sounds like if I want to layer I might want the L, but if I'm ok using it with light shirts then the M would be ok.

     

    For reference, I can wear the Large J25 with a light sweater or normal weight sweatshirt and it's still good. If the M in the J47 (for example) is bigger than the L in the J25 already (which is looks like based on the measurements), then it seems like some reasonable layering should be possible even with the M.

  5. Hey. New here and just getting into ACR.

     

    I picked up a J25-WS (Large) and absolutely love it. Now I want a more substantial Acronym jacket and am looking at the J47-GT, J43-GT, J32-GT, etc (the simpler short jackets).

     

    However, the local shop has limited stock and sizes to try on, and size info online seems inconsistent and hard to compare to my current jackets. (i.e. Haven vs End vs Acronym website list different measurements for 1/2 chest).

     

    If I'm a L in the J25-WS, would it be safe to assume an L in the other jackets is likely the best bet? The measurements make it look like I could be an M or and L, but it's hard to tell.

     

    Thanks for any tips!
